Circuit Drives Mixed Types and Quantities of LEDs: 10/03/02 EDN Design Ideas / (added 1/05) Portable systems often use LEDs of different colors and in
varying quantities of each color. Some examples are white for the display backlight, green for keypad illumination, and red for power. Typically, the LEDs derive power from at least two power
supplies: one for "standard" LEDs (red and green) and one for white LEDs.... |

Constant Current Constant Voltage Converter Drives White LEDs: 09/02/04 EDN Design Ideas / (added 1/05) LEDs usually take their drive from a constant
dc-current source to maintain constant luminescence. Most dc/dc converters, however, deliver a constant voltage by comparing a feedback voltage to an internal reference via an internal error
amplifier. The easiest way to turn a simple dc/dc converter into a constant-current source is to use a sense resistor to convert the output current to a voltage...... |
